PROS: 1.Right across the street from the Fabulous Fox Theater. 2.Very reasonably priced. 3.Great selection of food. 4. Fantastic meal. CONS: You have to yell your order to the cook from the cafeteria-style line. This can get a bit confusing/overwhelming when the place is packed. BOTTOM LINE: I would highly-recommend this restaurant for anyone wanting fabulous food at a cheap... More

My daughter thought it was very cool that you yell out your order to the cooks, and the steaks were wonderful. I loved the fact that they have fried okra on the menu. The desserts even received the wifes approval, and that's not easy!

Not a true steakhouse experience. Fortunately the staff warned me about both the okra and the mushroom sides: they are deep fried. Next time a visit my daughter at SLU I will find a true steakhouse.

We saw rave reviews of this restaurant and decided to try it before going to a concert at the Fox. Upon entering the restaurant, we were not expecting cafeteria style dining. The patrons are required to shout their order to the grill master. It was so fun! Even my husband the chef raved about the quality and texture of steak!... More

I am a big fan of the steakburger. It reminds me of trips I took there as a child. TBSH has a unique atmosphere that adds to the experience. You have workers on lunch break mixing with college students and the theater crowd.

We tried for the first time The Best Steak House a week ago. Had heard about it on TV. There were six of us in the group. I thought the food was decent and the serivce ok but none of the ladies will ever return because of the lack of cleanliness. The front windows and doors were filthy and that... More

I like this place. The food is not anything that will rock your world. You have to try something out of your comfort zone once in a while. Watch some soup nazi clips on youtube before you go. It will help you when you order! Seriously go here sometime!

And have your order ready when they call for you. We often go to the Best Steak House before (or after) enjoying a production at the Fox Theater or the Black Rep. The food is always excellent (and made quickly and accurately) and I will definitely return.

The food isn't that great, but it is a St. Louis Institution that needs to be experienced.

I'm a physician, financially blessed enough to be able to dine at the finest restaurants the world has to offer. Initially, I stuck my nose up at this place because of the location and the atmosphere, but the food here is surprisingly good! These steaks are not gourmet, but are moist with great flavor. Oh, and the staff is hilarious... More
